    For once the MC has a reasonable cheat. Keeps thing interesting. What's the point of reading a story where the MC is never really in danger.

    Or maybe he is an uncle. As as the only other cultivator wants to raise him well. Just like a mortal father does with his son

    However, when he thought about how thirteenth uncle had cared for him for so many years, and had even been willing to selflessly give up the path of cultivation for his sake, no matter what, Chen Daoxuan would never do something like abandoning the clan.

    Rare in Chinese novels.Giving me ace bowing to whitebeard vibes

    Chen Daoxuan turned around and looked at the white-haired old man sitting on the jade bed with bloodshot eyes. He knelt down respectfully and kowtowed to the old man.

    If a rich man feeds a starving person. - Starving person becomes rich in the future. - Option 1. Feed the rich man. Option 2. Feed a starving person. - how you answer this question says a lot about a person. - feed a starving person would be carrying on the will of the rich person. Aka he fed you now you feed someone else.

    This made me understand that I'm indeed a very lucky person. Many people were kind to me and helped me, but I shouldered this luck and didn't do anything, nor did I help others.

    Treat her like 14 year old kid according to what culture? American? Sure then that's a child, Asian? Almost legal. Arab, almost time to get married. Fantasy world of cultivation culture but a mortal? Already a mother.. Neither the author nor the MC is American.. I agree the author is focusing too much on her looks. But that's because I'm 28 and born in England 1994. If I was born in year 1750, in any country, I'd find nothing wrong with this. It's important at least to me when reading non native books or experiencing another culture to keep an open mind... In the parts world, being gay is seen as far worst than being attracted to a 14 year old. Who gets to judge which pov is right. Well in 2023 whoever is stronger is right. Atm America and American culture effectively rules most of the world so 18 seems to be age. And gay is OK. If China ever replaced America. Do you really think the worlds morals would be the same. What about if France became the ruler. Pretty sure legal age in France is 15/16. Same goes for some nordic countries. Japan too. Arab world similar.....tldr. You should have said 'treat her like a normal 14 year old American kid'

    Although she was only 14 years old, she had already matured quite a bit. Her height should be more than 1.65 meters, and her body proportions were excellent.

    Have you read past chapter 300ish.Pretty sure it's a xianxia. I honestly think there's a translation issue

    [Detected that this world is a high-level immortal world. Immortal Kings are everywhere and there are countless ferocious beasts. Your environment of growth is extremely harsh!

    Some people are able to control themselves and avoid committing evil. Others need the fear of god or in this case a powerful cultivator to stay in line. That's they capital punishment needs bringing back. All those trashcans stabbing people in London would quickly restrain themselves mostly. Right now they have no reason not to stab. Whats the worst that can happen to them

    Some fiend sects even went as far as introducing new sect rules that were stricter than an orthodox sect.

    Rather be a dead hero than an injured veteran. Injured vets are often homeless. Shows how much people remember or care. Where as at least being a dead soilder gets you a huge funeral and send off.

    His cultivation that he had cultivated for hundreds of years was destroyed just like that. This was more painful than death.

    Plump is the translation. And it's also the agent trying to up sell. So it's safe to say the girl in question is fat af..

    I don't think the MC is transmigrated or reincarnated. Meaning he is actually 18. meanwhile the girl is mentally in her 100s.

    It's rare that I find people who have such deep insight into things like this. Most of the people in the novel world are completely blindsided. Marriage was never about love historically. The consequences of breaking off an engagement are huge for nobles. The shame the mother had to go through when the MCs dad broke it off was bad enough, now her daughter also has to go through it. You just know other noble ladies are probably gossiping about something being wrong with her and her daughter. The humiliation this would bring is insanely high. It would completely distable the relationship between the two families.

    "Grandfather, father, uncle, I, Chu Yuan, am not as good as third uncle. My talent is not as good as third uncle, nor is my strength as good as third uncle. However, I will never lose to third uncle in terms of how much I love her!"

    When I was 12, 12 was indeed the prime age for a women.Even when I was 13 I still think 12 was OK.Sadly as I grew older my tastes changed. Now that I'm in my late 20s, even when I see 15 or 16 year old, all I see are kids. I swear 15/16 were super hot when I was 15. My first girlfriend was 15. Something went wrong as I grew older it seems. Must be the brainwashing of society

    If Yue had been a beautiful young girl in her prime before, then Yue was now a celestial maiden from the heavens who had descended to the mortal world, untainted by the filth of the mortal world!

    If you have 5 apples and eat one. You have 4 apples left.

    That was indeed the case. As long as the golden core realm experts were not around, the true core realm experts could completely run the great Qian Dynasty completely amok.

    And that folks is the difference between chinese humans and normal humans. Without rice being inside a Chinese person, they will die. Regardless of fat storage, other sources of nutrition or even length of time not eaten.

    She had not eaten for two days and not a single grain of rice was inside her tummy now, which was why her body was beginning to collapse.

    Might be a translation issue.Maybe it's. "The two girls, one older and the other being younger both sat" . Or it could be. "both girls, one being slightly older, sat down"Effectively the important thing is both are still girls. Aka pre marriage. Definitely pre kids. In a cultivation world, 100 year old girl might be the new 19.

    The two girls, one old and one young, waited in front of Ye Xuan's Hall in silence.

    Another disappointment. This novel suffers from the usual problems western cultivation type novels go through.Main issue being the behaviour and attitudes of the characters from the isekai world. They seem fake, out of place. Tribesmen behave differently from modern city men. Farmers and homesteaders back in the 1900s are different from medieval folks. This novel has semi modern behaving characters living in a medieval fantasy world. The disconnect is bad

    Why isn't he giving a surname or family name.In a world like this, not having a surname is bad thing. Only some peasants and slaves had no family name (even some slaves had surnames throughout human history, most peasants had surnames in countries that were not too oppressive. Even in small villages, the village name would be attached to the person's name. I am noah from belling village. In other cultures you'd simply use your lineage. I am noah son of John son of ash.)

    Noah simply faked a smile ,before introducing himself, " I am Noah, nice to meet you sir".
